A tidemistress leads some nefarious ritual above a pool. Do not look in the pool when we approach it, or you will be rewarded with a view of our drowned allies. We must put a stop to this ritual. The tidemistress is key.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Disruption of Power
The naga are tapping into some latent power, infusing the energy into some manner of device. I do not know what purpose they have for this power, but it is surely in our interest to destroy the objects before they can be used against us.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Deep
By now, King Greymane and Lady Proudmoore should be in the cave at which we are to meet. Let's not keep them waiting.
